Boop
In a world coinhabited by humans and giants, pestered by the memories of long-gone apocalyptic wars, small bands of giants now live simple lives, gathering from nature, and humans live scavenging from the wreckage of civilization in small bands, in hiding, hoping to never be seen by the giants.
Decades have passed since the wars and some giants have never seen humans outside of the stories their elders tell. Such is the case for Eliyen, a playful and naïve giant who, one day, while out to get water, sees a human drinking from the stream!

Rhaarini Aamiteshi
Rhaarini Aamiteshi is a series of animated shorts, currently comprising of Imirooto and Ihakoono Tamaashi, set in the world of Tesiiro, a place where magic and spirituality permeate life. There live the Aarhena, a tribe of goat and sheep herders, torn between the ways of the old nomads, who followed the season's callings every year, and the ways of the new farmers, who settled by the Tamaari river. Amidst them lives Nomaari, a young goatherder, and her secret friend, Rhiili, a misshapen spirit who seemingly bears both striking resemblance and stark difference to Nomaari, and yet is inseparable from her. Besides these two, among the Aarhena, lives Imiiro, a young boy with a strange love for masks, and Omaaisi, an elder who never forgot her childhood.
